Summaries

Due to his physical resemblance to criminal Steve Chancellor, law enforcement recruits seaman Larry Ellis to pose as Chancellor and infiltrate an organized crime ring in France.

Ship's officer Larry Ellis is asked by the CIA to help infiltrate a forgery ring in France as he is almost a double for a dead double-crossing gold courier who worked for the gang. Ellis realizes that his life is at risk, as well as the stability of the money supplies of the Western world.—Jeremy Perkins {J-26}
